Dale, of the Huron Road, Hullettzand Tuckersmith, who are probably the most extensive Gran, ers in this part of the country, have done their share of prize taking at the fall fairs, as usual. They exhibited at six fairs, Seaforth, Hansel], Goderich, Clinton, Brussels and Blyth, and took in all seventy-one prizes, nearly all of which were for heavy horses,ofiwhioh'phe Messrs. Dale are Very successful breed- ers. The farming industry can hardly be said to be booming just now, but men with as much enterprise and in. industry as these gentlemen are sure to do so. and in this case these sterling qualities are winning their reward. Fred Beachler sold his saw mill and hundred acre farm in Mornington to his son Louis for $6,000. He sold oth- er M) acres to the Arnold Bros. for $1,700. The parties who broke into Bern- hardt's liquor store, Galt, on Saturday, Oct. 7th, were caught last Friday in the persons of four boys, named Era.. mer, Gives, Henderson and Sutton. A lad who was with the party gave evi- dence which could not be refuted, and Gives and Sutton were fined $10 and costs or 30 days, _and Kramer and Henderson $5 and costs or 20 days. All the fines were paid. Thos. Bean, living near Maplewood, sustained a. very serious accident the other day by accidentally falling from an upper beam in the barn upon a. threshing machine which was standing below. Four ribs were broken by the fall, two of them being driven into one of the lungs. A little child of Mr. Arthur Houlton of West Nissouri, while creeping over the floor, picked up a caterpillar, and baby-like, put it into its mouth and chewed it up, with the result that the child’s mouth became very much in- flamed and swelled from the hairs sticking into the throat. Under the care of the doctor the little one is re- covering. About ten days ago Mr. Adam Beck of London, shipped 30 horses to the New York markets. They were all sold at an average of 8327 per head, one animal, a beautiful iron gray, brihg- ing 8900. Mr. John Hunter, of the London road, Clinton.

Two car loads of steers brought from Manitoba were auctioned oft at Guelph the other day. The lot fetched $1500, an average of $36 per head. The ship- ment was made up of 3 year olds, with the exception of two two year olds, the latter bringing the top prices of the sale, which proves that this Is the beginning of a great business to be done in that line between the farmers of the two provinces. A meeting of the claimants of the Robert Edwards estate was held at Gasstin's hotel, London, on the 24th. The estate is valued at 1t205,000,000 and it is said proof is now in possession of the claimants which will secure the estate. George W. Gerrie of West, Gurafraxa met his death from a pecuGr cause. On May 25th last, while carrying some tree prunings from his orchard, a. thorn of a plum bush entered one of his has at the side about two inches above the knee. From the effeets of this he took to his bed a few days afterwards, and he never left it till carried out in his tsotfin Wednesday, r John Graham was sentenced to three years in the penitentiary for stealing a pair of trousers and a waistcoat from a boarder at the Dominion Hotel, Strat- ford, Louis Wood, an old resident n?

BUDGET FROM CORRES- PONDENTS AND OTHER S OURCES. l Our hitherto unmolested community has recently become the field for opera- tion by certain unprincipled mortals who strive to gain a livelihood by exe- cuting illegal conveyanees of personal property. Drawn by some powerful natural affinity, these midnight marau- ders have usually confined their sleight- of hand operations to goose pens, gob- l bler folds, he. Emboldened by past ‘ successes they now venture into village cellars and indulgently grant themt selves a liberal allowanoeof canned irui, bread, butter pies, potatoes Lux We readily concede that canned fruits sup- eradded to a slice of bread such as our Dundee ladies make furnishes a very delicious and desirable addition to our dietary wardrobe. It is simply the the sneaking, cowardly, villainous man. ner of securing it that we seriously ob. ject to. But say, bummers, if you don't wake up some fine morning to find yourselves clubbed to death by the howling natives it will be because you have quit your fooling. nawkeavule W. J.

Hillgartner celebrated the twentrfifth anniversary of their marriage. Both bride and groom wore the same charm- ing smiles as of yore, but the furrowed countenances crowned by the frosting of the last quarter of a century plainly told that it was all in vain to attempt to feel just as young as they used to be. Many friends and relatives from Gr and near were present to do honor to and share in the hospitality of the young couple. The silver gifts were both numerous and costly. May they live to celebrate their fiftieth anniver- sary, but then they had better cull in the assistance of a minister. The Dominion Department of Agri- culture issued bulletin No. 19 this week, on grasses, their uses and com. position. It is of peculiar interest and value to the stock raiser, as well as in a lesser, degree to the general farmer. Most people will he surprised to learn that there are 300 kinds of grasses either native to or naturalized in Can- ada, .
